It’s been a while since our previous Website Update and we have a ton of updates to share! We had a busy time with part of our team attending SIGGRAPH in Vancouver, Canada, and some team members taking a quick vacation but still we managed to get an incredible amount of work done.
And remember: if you ever have a suggestion or if you have found a bug, please get in touch. You could be part of our next Website Update!
Most important changes this week
You can now bookmark or share links to galleries of specific tags, categories or other searches. Here are some examples: the most liked models this week and the most viewed models with tag #zbrush.
In the materials editor when editing your materials you can double click on a material to select it instead of using the drop down menu.
New integrations
3D scanning service Smart3Dcapture
Embeds and viewer
We added a ‘demo mode’ shader to the viewer. It will make the model cycle between different shaders to showcase different aspects of it. Artist uses it often to present models like diffuse / normalmap etc. Here’s an example:
cyclops_engine by Fox3D on Sketchfab
Going fullscreen is now easier – the button’s ‘hot zone’ was too small.
When moving the camera, the hot spots movement is not smooth and looks shaky.
Uploading, exporters and editing
Fixed the material editor – in some cases double clicking would select the wrong object.
Changing a model’s orientation now correctly updates the camera orientation in all cases (like Annotations).
Misc
Improved layout for mobile devices.
We’ve made it easier to share your model right after uploading it.
